Heaven Help Me For The Way I

I Got Into Therapy In The Fifth Grade Because I Said In A Sarcastic Way That I Was Going To Kill Myself, And They Didn't Get It Then. Nothing's Changed.

I'm Such An Incredibly, Stupidly Sensitive Person That Everything That Happens To Me, I Experience It Really Intensely. I Feel Everything Very Deeply. And When You Feel Things Deeply And You Think About Things A Lot And You Think About How You Feel, You Learn A Lot About Yourself. And When You Know Yourself, You Know Life.

My Problem Was That I Felt Ashamed Of Feeling Sad Or Angry. Now, I Don't Hide My Vulnerability In My Lyrics. There's No Way I Was Going To Get Raped And Not Get Something Out Of It. I Learned About Power And Hope And Forgiveness. I Like Who I Am Now And I Wouldn't Be Who I Am If That Hadn't Happened.

Don't Waste Your Crazy!

When I Came In From Paris Recently, For Some Reason The Guy From Customs Wanted To Know What Kind Of Music I Wrote. I Was Like, "i Really Want To Please You So You Don't Keep Me Here, But I Have No Answer To That."
